What propaganda! And to think that I was subjected to this crap when I was kid growing up in Las Cruces in the 50s and 60s.

Funny watching this and comparing it to Coronet's attempts at making the exact same film.. EB wins by a mile! While it's all pretty run of the mill educational, the film mixes live action, animation, historical reinactments, and hey! racism! The result, a fine example of a goos standard educational film.

Some good shots, but mostly a typical circa 1950 film treatment of a high school geography textbook subject. Only 10 cities over 100,000 population in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona combined! Note how oil fields are mapped consistent with the US - Mexico border, how Texas produced up to a quarter of the world's petroleum, and how the oil from fields on Indian lands were the backbone of Oklahoma's economy. Cities new and clean and without smoke. An interesting moment in history.
